As I think I have mentioned previously our garden wall had a gigantic big crack in it and the housing people have finally decided to repair it. The process at the moment is pulling it down bit by bit each day. Not sure why it is taking them so long but at least they are doing it finally!
The wall is between our garden and the street and now all that is between the garden and the street is a green net. Nice. Mum tells me that you can't see into my room from the street, but they can certainly see in the garden and I can certainly see them and hear them as they walk down the street so I feel rather vulnerable will it there.
To give you an idea of how much wall has been pulled down, see the bar going across the photo above mum's head? The wall was just a bit higher than that. As you can see street level is actually higher than the ground level so people walking past will look down at us...
Now this photo below you may think is just a pic of a wall. Actually it is a hippo, look carefully - it took us years of practicing our tennis skills against the wall and hitting of the plaster to get that hippo there!

ah... now I see the hippo! Its a wonder you're not at Wimbledon with all that practice!
